Dear UGDSB Students and Families,

As March Break approaches, we hope many of you will have the chance to enjoy some well-deserved time away from your regular school routines. Breaks like this are a good opportunity to slow down, spend time with family and friends, and recharge.

We would also like to thank the many UGDSB staff members who continue to support our schools and services during the break. Their work helps ensure everything is ready to welcome students back after the week off.

Whether you are travelling, spending time outdoors, or simply enjoying some quiet days at home, we hope the week ahead brings rest and a chance to reset before the busy spring months.

Thank you for being part of our school communities and for helping make UGDSB a place where students can learn, grow, and thrive.

We look forward to welcoming everyone back after the break, refreshed and ready for the weeks ahead.

Best wishes,

Ralf Mesenbrink, Chair of the Board

Peter Sovran, Director of Education
